More glossy paper adventures



We did several different cards last night, but the one with the most surprising results were the mistake cards.  We used the Plant Hope stamps and applied them on to glossy paper that had been treated using the polished stone technique.  I (thought) I came prepared to have everyone make this card, but once at Panera realised that the background paper was at home on top of my Big Shot (I could see myself setting it there while I replaced the die...). Yikes! What to do?

As it turned out, I had large sheets of 8.5 x 11 inch glossy paper in my bag - just in case.

As it turned out EVERYONE really loved filling all of the glossy paper with the polished stone technique.  I had two boxes of die re-inkers with me (12 per box) so everyone used multiple colors to create different effects.  My samples only use the glossy paper is just used for the image pieces, but everyone embraced the idea of creating a scene scape and went to town. I have to say that the best results were from Hannah (Sharon's granddaughter and Kelley's niece) and Donna. Arrrgh, they left before I got the photos I wanted -
